Managing individual circuit loading is critical to the reliability of your center. The Branch Circuit Management (BCM) system provides accurate load manage-ment information and alerts you of potential problems before they affect youroperation. User configurable set points allow you to know when each circuit is approaching a load threshold that could open your supply to that device. This notification allows your staff to perform the required service to maintain your critical operation.

DESIGNED FOR PERFORMANCE, FLEXIBILITY AND RELIABILITY

• Factory integrated as an optional feature to your PDU or RPP; the Branch CircuitManagement system can be used for communicating valuable information toyour central management system or to a local or remote display panel.

• The BCM actively monitors the load current of each of your circuits and reportsthis information to you for cost allocation or load protection management.

• The Branch Circuit Management system provides field maintenance or upgrade-ability via a wiring harness connection allowing the addition and replacement of individual sensors. Others offer only a fixed component system carried on aPCB that must be abandoned within your panels and bypassed with an ineleganthardware configuration when upgraded or repaired.
